Ashleigh Beechy , LCPC, LIMHP

Ashleigh Beechy is a licensed professional who brings more than 18 years of direct counseling experience with adults, adolescents, couples, and families. She has practiced across private practice, crisis center, hospital, and school settings, and has particular experience supporting people facing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, eating concerns and body dysmorphia, LGBTQIA+ issues, family dynamics, and stress management. She also works with matters related to addiction, trauma, parenting, sleep and eating challenges, attention differences, and a broad range of intimacy and attachment concerns.

Ashleigh holds LCPC and LIMHP credentials, indicating state licensure to provide professional mental health counseling, and she maintains licenses in Ohio, Idaho, Nebraska, and Washington. She also sees several non-US clients, reflecting experience with people in different regions and circumstances. Her counseling style is flexible rather than one-size-fits-all; she partners with clients to apply cognitive-behavioral, client-centered, and solution-focused methods tailored to each person or family. By combining practical techniques with empathic listening, she aims to help clients build coping skills, regain hope, and move toward meaningful goals.

Her decision to become a counselor grew from a transformative college counseling experience that helped her manage anxiety and refocus on health. She transitioned to an online practice before the COVID-19 pandemic, valuing virtual care for people with busy schedules, limited transportation, transient lifestyles, or a preference for texting, emailing, or chatting. She welcomes conversations about goals and growth and offers support to those ready to begin work toward a healthier life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Ashleigh draws from attachment-based therapy to explore how early and important relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust. This approach helps people understand relationship dynamics, heal from abandonment or attachment wounds, and build more secure bonds with partners and family members.

She also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and empowered. That method supports self-exploration, emotional processing, and goal-setting at a pace that fits each person. Additionally, Ashleigh incorporates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and behavioral patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Ashleigh works collaboratively with clients to determine what will be most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for each individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing work, family, or travel. Ashleigh provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that best fits their schedule and comfort level. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access licensed professionals from different locations.
